Looking magnificent.

A lot of work which has defeated many.

Good to see her back on the water.

Cheers Scott, we did 5 years in the shed (first year drying her out) and then the last 2 years at the amazing Fairey Marine with Mark and his Team. There's no way we could have finished her, or to the standard of the Fairey Marine team, their attention to details and thoughtfulness is just superb, so pleased with the result.
